Black at a wedding? The Black & White wedding trend

26th August 2015

So in today’s post we are going to explore the black & white wedding trend.

Although Black may not be a colour closely associated with weddings and there are many couples who would never consider having black feature at all in their day it can actually work so well for a chic wedding. As we all know Black & Gold worked very well a few years back when we say the rise in the Gatsby inspired weddings, and it seems more and more people are adopting this classic colour to pair with white for a contemporary look.

It’s a very clean, stylish and modern colour combination. It’s very simple to style a black and white wedding and the effect really is breathtaking. In order to get the chic look that this monochrome palette oozes it is important ensure you balance the use of the black and the white. Too much black can leave the day looking a little more on the funeral side, overdoing the white can result in a slight lack of personality and leave your guests wondering what look you were trying to achieve.

This is also an amazing choice if you don’t want your girls all in black. This gorgeous black and white dress is the Finale tipped dress from Coast.

So if your thinking of having a black and white wedding my advice – go for it! You wont regret it! People may thing your crazy at first but once they see the end result everyone will be convinced! Monochrome is always a sure-fire hit!
